What-What?! Week of October 4th

The grandparents requested child pictures, so here are some from this last week -- the weather was delightfully not too wet, so we spent some time riding scooters / bikes.

Saffron's too tall for her bike now.  Not sure we're going to fix that before the rains come this year, though -- probably looking at something more like adult sized now?  She's getting tall.

This is like my life in a nutshell.  Turn around and BAM!  There's Osric, doing his Osric thing, right next to me.

Oz was pleased he got this so high -- surprisingly, it stayed up for a few hours.  How do you know you don't have toddlers in the house anymore?  I'm thinking this is a good indication.

What-What?! Week of September 20th

Friday, we got out the paints again, and this time we pulled all the paint colors out of the set and tried them out -- the rule was you had to use all the colors.  We looked at examples of abstract paintings and discussed what a abstract art even is, then we tried to make some...

Saffron's work -- a lady with her dress on fire; a nature scene

Corwin -- two snakes; some stuff (I know the red thing is a duck, and I think that's a blue sun, not sure about the rest)

Osric - two rainbow snakes fighting aliens; a waterfall with a crab

 

 

These are mine - some trippy space stuff, and a recent sunset

The husband - a freaky sun (there's a definite "You think you can hide from me?!" vibe there...), and a bear regarding the city
